HC Deb 30 March 1981 vol 2 c47W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment, further to his letter of 16 March, concerning the £73,507 spent on the cost of the supply and installation of the plants put in the new annexe of the Welsh Office, how many persons are employed to look after these plants; and at what cost.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

The maintenance of the plants is still the responsibility of the contractor. The cost is £20,000 per annum, but I have no details of the numbers employed on this work.
